The impressive 384,000-sf school was built to accommodate 2,000+ students is located on a 121-acre lot and is segmented into four distinct academies, referred to as Small Communities of Learning (SCLs). Each SCL is represented by a different color: Public Service (blue), Arts and Communication (red), Trade and Health Science (yellow) and a Freshman Academy (green).
Unified by an expansive common area designed to be anything but common, and cyber cafes meant to foster a special sense of place, this state-of-the-art facility marks a dynamic shift in the District’s and community’s approach to preparing their students for 21st-Century challenges. Students are exposed to machinery and technology many would have never had the chance to experience outside of a college atmosphere.
